Amwaj Rotana has introduced few weeks ago Fumo Lounge by Rosso – a outdoor place to feel good, relax and forget the stress of the day, eat good food, enjoy sunset drinks and have a shisha if you are a smoker.

And now that the weather is so cool in the Beautiful City of Dubai, you can relax while listening to the lounge music and enjoy their delicious food.

Benihana is one of my favorite restaurant in the Beautiful City of Dubai.

It is located at Amwaj Rotana Hotel in JBR.

As the chefs at Benihana have revamped certain dishes to a more contemporary style of presentation and added a wider range of dishes from East Asian cuisines, I decided to go there last week to try their new menu.

I started with this Miso Ramen Soup.

The picture speaks about itself!

Then we took this Kani Sarada Salad that contains mango and avocado.

I am crazy about avocado so wherever I see avocado, I have to choose it.

It was a very refreshing salad with a creamy sesame dressing…

Their Sashimi is the best and so fresh!

Salmon is always my favorite…

The Fried Money Bag were crunchy as they are filled with crispy prawn.

The Salt & Chili Pepper Squid was crunchy and exquisite…

The Benihana Short Ribs are so flavorful and tasty.

This new sushi creation is a Premiere in Dubai as it contains raspberry sauce.

It is called The Samurai and contains salmon, shrimp tempura, cream cheese and raspberry sauce.

A must try when you visit Benihana.

The Spider roll was a bit salty for me, probably because of the Unagi.

And now, let me tell you about the main courses….

The Crispy Chilly Beef was divine!

The Spicy King Prawns were so tasty!

Do we really still have space to eat?

Actually no but when we saw this dessert, none of us could resist it.

It is called the Benihana Grande Finale!

It had panacotta, mochi, rice pudding, black sesame ice cream etc…

As yes we managed to eat everything because the taste was heaven and we couldn’t resist it.

I highly recommend you to visit and try the new menu of Benihana, you will love it !

I went last week to try the Iftar at Horizon, Amwaj Rotana in Jumeirah Beach Residence.

And of course, it’s customary to end on a sweet note of traditional sweets and an aromatic cup of Arabic coffee.
